Well, I had an epiphany on Dec. 12, 2005 that we are living in the 'end times'. Prior to this experience, I was a dyed-in-the-wool agnostic and skeptic. I pretty much didn't believe in anything without solid proof - and when it came to spiritual beliefs, experiences, etc., I could not find proof anywhere.

But quite unexpectedly, I had this experience. Now my epiphany is my proof, so I do try to help others see this, but I know only too well that it will be impossible for most to believe it without their own epiphianies. But I think that if I can present this seemingly ridiculous idea, that these are the 'end times', as best as I can, then maybe it will leave a tiny spark of curiosity in some, which may then lead to even greater things down the road.

This was a life changing experience for me - not a single day goes by that I am not astounded by my epiphany and the events that are now taking place. Quite frankly, it is all that I can think about now, it's just so huge - everything else pales in comparison.

I outline what happened to me here at my blog:

And I occasionally post my thoughts about self-awakening through showing how similar all of the world's religions teachings really are, and virtually all speak of an end time. My epiphany revealed to me that all religions are true or contain truth, so I am using this knowledge to try and better understand our situation.

So all that said, what happened to you while in Asia (and where in Asia)? Buddhism is the one religion I was always attracted to my entire life and I studied it quite a bit for the past 25 years so I am very curious as to what it was.
